Best women's motorcycle clothing

While clothing options for men are enormous, and have been for years, that’s not necessarily the case for women’s kit. Up until fairly recently, women had little choice but to wear the appropriate size of men’s clothing but this is far from the ideal solution. As it does for men, clothing for female riders needs to be designed and built for female riders, to provide the right fit – and hence, comfort and protection – at all times.

A decade ago, small men’s clothing, possibly with some pink trim added, was the only real option. But in the past few years, manufacturers have responded to growing numbers of female riders so that now, most offer versions of their popular clothing in particular which has been designed specifically for women.

Typically, jackets and trousers are more tailored to ensure a good fit with no excess material to flap around in the wind while riding or mass-produced sections to feel constrictive. Material technology is the same as with men’s clothing, so CE ratings, for example, should be comparable, as should the specification of armour and protection.

Gloves and boots can also be cut differently to offer the same levels of protection as men’s versions but with a proper fit and helmet fit can often be tailored by changing cheekpads or linings. Riding jeans are naturally more fitted than men’s versions so now, it’s possible to choose the perfect outfit for the conditions, the ride or the bike itself.
